Squad Engineer
Access: Squad Room, Squad Engineer Prep, wherever your tools take you. Difficulty: Medium Rank: Lance Corporal (Starting), Corporal (25 hours), Sergeant (100 hours) Class: Marines Supervisors:Squad Leader Duties: Stick with your squad, follow your Squad Leader's orders. Open up entrances, place down fortifications. Forget to flip your welding goggles down. Guides:Guide to Engineering, Guide to Base Building, Guide to Fire Support Quote:"May I have more metals, please?"
The Squad Engineer is responsible for a variety of tasks, the most important being erecting battlefield fortifications, setting up forward-operating bases (FOB's,) and repairing/destroying mission-critical objectives. You have lots of tools and materials to work with, including the TGMC's powerful remote sentry units, land mines, barbed wire, explosives, and welders.
Playing the Engineer
As an engineer, you must be prepared to operate effectively with whatever assignment your squad is given. Sometimes a squad will be assigned a specific duty solely based on their engineers, building the initial FOB or repairing colony communications or power, for example. Other times, you will be in an assault squad that's constantly on the move, assisting with demolition, entry into inaccessible areas, and making defensive areas forward of the main FOB or LZ.
The FOB is built by drone on the ship, which is far faster than building it by hand. Once the FOB shutters are raised, it will be surrounded by xenos, meaning every single marine will be trapped inside.
Almost every marine operation will have some type of FOB, and all engineers need to know how to build and maintain one of these positions. You must also learn how to set up and place defensive weapon systems like the UA 571-C Sentry. After learning these basics, you will also need to familiarize yourself with repairing mission-critical infrastructure such as colony power generators, APC's, and telecommunications systems. These activities will make up the bulk of your job, but further learning includes demolition using C4 and remote charges, welding, repair, hacking, construction, and on-site salvaging for any material you could use.
Vendors, Equipment, and Weapons
The Squad Engineer has their own prep room within their squad prep area (hover your mouse over the doors if you can't find it.) Inside are your GHMME Automated Closet, NEXUS Automated Engineer Equipment Rack, and yellow Engineer System Vendor.
The Automated Closet contains your standard kit, choice of armor, backpack, webbings, toolbelt, pouches, and any mask you may want.
Standard issue marine tactical gloves. It reads: 'knit by Marine Widows Association'.
NOTE: The arm and leg plates all have the same stats. Only the chest plates and helmets have differing armor stats. Examine the exosuit with the pieces attached and click the "relevant information" prompt to view exact statistics.
Designed to mount a variety of modular armor components and support systems. It comes installed with light-plating and a shoulder lamp. Mount armor pieces to it by clicking on the frame with the components. Use a crowbar to remove armor pieces, use a screwdriver to remove armor attachments.
Provides minor protection and encumbrance when attached. This one is marked as a light skirmisher piece, used by those who prefer faster movement speed over protection, such as scouts.
Provides moderate protection and encumbrance when attached. This one is marked as a medium infantry piece, used by frontline troops that need a good balance of mobility and protection.
Provides high protection and encumbrance when attached. This one is marked as a heavy assault piece, with extra padding and plate thickness which provides excellent protection against all manners of dangers.
Provides moderate protection and encumbrance when attached. This one is marked as an EVA armor piece, used for extravehicular operations in the vacuum of space. The gaps in the armor seem to say otherwise, however. NOTE: does not actually provide protection against space.
Provides moderate protection and encumbrance when attached. This one is marked as an EVA armor piece, but the helmet has a skull engraved on it. NOTE: does not actually provide protection against space.
Provides high protection and encumbrance when attached. This one is marked as an EOD armor piece, used by specialized Explosive Ordnance Disposal units to disarm explosives safely. And no, that is not a skirt. NOTE: does not actually provide extra protection against explosive damage.
A backpack item that allows you to carry more things in bulk.
Holds less than a backpack, but can be opened on your back.
Can carry five normal sized items at once.
A backpack item that allows you to carry more things in bulk.
Holds more than a satchel, but cannot be opened while on your back.
Can carry ten normal sized items at once.
A small, lightweight pouch that can be clipped onto armor or your belt to provide additional storage for miscellaneous gear or box and drum magazines. And it is in fact a belt, not a pouch. Don't get confused now.
Can switch drawing modes by right clicking.

A pouch used to hold shotgun shells. Has four slots.
Has two drawing methods, click to open, and draw last stored upon click.

A small tube with exhaust ports to expel noise and gas.
Does not completely silence a weapon, but does make it much quieter and a little more accurate and stable at the cost of bullet speed.
Exact stats: +10% damage falloff, halves bullet speed Wielded: +10% accuracy,-5% scatter,-2 recoil Unwielded: -5% scatter, -3 recoil
A lengthened barrel allows for lessened scatter, greater accuracy and muzzle velocity due to increased stabilization and shockwave exposure. Makes your weapon longer(obviously), making it unlikely to fit in a holster.
A magnetically attached harness kit that attaches to the rail mount of a weapon. When dropped, the weapon will sling to TGMC armor or your back. Does not slow you down if attached to a weapon and equipped. but why don't you just use a pick up macro? they disabled pickup macros for guns. Use these to keep your gun on you instead.
Fookin' laser soights. A laser sight placed under the barrel. Significantly increases one-handed accuracy and significantly reduces movement penalties to accuracy.
A custom-built improved foregrip for better accuracy, less recoil, and less scatter when wielded especially during burst fire. However, it also slightly increases wield delay and makes unwielded fire more cumbersome. Makes your gun slightly bigger, possibly making it not fit in holsters.
A custom-built improved foregrip for less recoil, and faster wielding time. However, it also increases weapon size, and slightly hinders unwielded firing.
A submachinegun stock distributed in "small" numbers to TGMC forces. Compatible with the T-19, this stock reduces recoil and improves accuracy, but at a reduction to handling and agility. Seemingly a bit more effective in a brawl. Use this if you plan on using the T-19 as your primary weapon.
A non-standard heavy stock for the T-35 Shotgun. Less quick and more cumbersome than the standard issue stakeout, but reduces recoil and improves accuracy. Allegedly makes a pretty good club in a fight too.
Certainly not as specialised as any other storage modules, but definitely able to hold some larger things, like binoculars, maps, magazines, and motion detectors.
Can hold about as much as a tool belt, and sometimes small spools of things like barbed wire, or an entrenching tool. Looks like it might slow you down a bit.
Can hold a substantial variety of medical supplies and apparatus, but cannot hold much more than a medkit could. Looks like it might slow you down a bit.
NOTE: These modules augment your armor, increasing its abilities and resistances. Only one can be attached at a time.
A large amount of additional armor plating designed to fit inside some of the vulnerable portions of the Jaeger Combat Exoskeleton conventional armor patterns. This older version has worse protection. Will definitely impact mobility.
When activated, this system provides resistance to environmental hazards, such as gases and radiological exposure. This older version provides no protection to acid. Best paired with the Mimir Environmental Helmet System. Will impact mobility.
